Luggage retractable pull rod adapted with a rotating hook

ABSTRACT

A luggage retractable pull rod adapted with a rotating hook includes an annul handle, a single post, and a hook penetrating through where between the handle and the single post that is capable of automatic return in conjunction with a torque coil; the hook is concealed when not in use and turned to expose when in use to hang an object on thereon; and once the object clears off, the hook automatically returns to its concealed location.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

(a) Field of the Invention

The present invention is related to a luggage retractable pull rod, andmore particularly to one adapted with a rotating hook to hang an objecton the hook.

(b) Description of the Prior Art

To facilitate towing, a luggage or bag of is usually adapted withmultiple castors and a built in retractable carrier frame to be pulledout for handling. The retractable carrier frame is generally made in asingle or a

shaped rod.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

The primary purpose of the present invention is to provide a luggageretractable pull rod adapted with a rotating hook. The pull rod isrelated to a single post provided at its top an annular handle; and ahook penetrates through where between the annular handle and the singlepost. The hook provides return function by means of a torque coil.Therefore the hook is automatically concealed at between the annularhandle and the single post and is turned to expose for hanging an objecton the hook.

Another purpose of the present invention is to provide a luggageretractable pull rod adapted with a rotating hook. Each on both sides onthe luggage is disposed with a pair of press plates. Each press platemay be concealed in or exposed out of the luggage to secure the objectsuspended on the hook with a cord.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

Referring to FIGS. 1, 2, and 3, a luggage retractable pull rod adaptedwith a rotating hook of the present invention s essentially comprised ofan annular handle 1, a single post 2, and a hook 3. The single post 2 iscoupled to a holder 4 and a coil 5 is disposed to the hook 3 and theholder 4.

An extension post 11 extends from the lower end of the annular handle 1and a locking slot 111 is each provided to both sides at the lower endof the extension post 11. A press switch 12 of the prior art is disposedto the annular handle to control retraction of the pull rod providedthat the press switch 12 is not morphologically restricted since anyother type of switch of the prior art may be provided. A throat 13 isconnected to the upper end of the extension post 11 and a limit slot 131is disposed on the end surface of the throat 13 as illustrated in FIG.3.

The single post 2 relates to a non-circular post and to an oval postconnected to the luggage as illustrated.

The hook 3 made in a annular shape corresponding to that of the singlepost 2 penetrates through the extension post 11 of the annular handle 1and a hooking portion 31 is disposed on either or both sides of the hook3. Two retainers 32, 33 are disposed on the end surface of the hook 3 tomatch both limit slots 131 to allow the hook 3 may freely rotate withinthe range of angle limited by the limit slot 131.

The holder 4 made in a shape corresponding to that of the single post 2has two mobile elastic plates 41 provided on both sidewalls of theholder 4 and each elastic plate 41 is located in a producing portion 411for the holder 41 to insert into the single post 2 by having theprotruding portion 411 to be mutually locked to their respective holes21 drilled on the single post 2. A recessed portion 42 and an annularrube 43 are disposed on the top of the holder 5 and an annular tube 431extending from the lower end of the holder 4.

The torque coil 5 is secured in the recessed portion 42 of the holder 42with one end locked to the holder 4 and another end 51 locked to thehook 3.

Accordingly, the extension post 11 of the annular handle 1 penetratesthrough the hook 3, the torque coil 5, and the annular tube 43 insequence before penetrating into the annual tube 431 at the lower end ofthe holder 4 by means of a locking member 6 to be secured in the lockingslot 111 of the extension post 11. The holder 4 is then inserted andsecured in the single post 2 for the hook 3 to be concealed at wherebetween the annual handle 1 and the single post 2 if not needed asillustrated in FIG. 4, and exposed by turning to hang an object 7thereon as illustrated in FIG. 5. Once the object 7 clears out of thehook 3, the hook 3 will automatically return due to the torque coil 5 asillustrated in FIG. 1.

Now referring to FIG. 6, on each of both sides at the top of a luggage 8is attached with two press plates 9. Two press plates 9 are retreatedwhen not in use and pressed to extend out of the luggage 8 in use asillustrated in FIG. 7 for both ends of an elastic cord 10 to anchor fortying other object 7a placed on top of the luggage in place.

1. A luggage retractable pull rod adapted with a rotating hook includingan annul handle, a single post, and a hook; a holder being coupled tothe single post, and a torque coil being disposed at where between thehook and holder; an extension post being disposed to the lower end ofthe annual handle, a locking slot being each disposed on both sides ofthe extension post, a throat being connected to the upper end of theextension post, and a limit slot being disposed on the end surface ofthe throat; the single post made in a non-circular shape being attachedto the luggage; the hook in annular shape corresponding to that of thesingle post penetrating through the extension post of the annularhandle, being disposed on either side or both sides with a hookingportion, one retainer or two retainers being disposed on the end surfaceof the hook in corresponding to the limit slot on the annular handle andfreely turning within the angle as restricted by the limit slot; theholder in annual shape corresponding to that of the single post beingdisposed with a mobile elastic member each on both sidewalls, the holderbeing inserted into the single tube, a protruding portion on each mobileelastic member being incorporated with an insertion hole disposed on thesingle post, a recessed portion and an annular tube being disposed onthe upper end of the holder, and an extension tube extending from thelower end of the holder; the torque coil being implanted and secured inthe recessed portion of the holder with one end locked to the holder andthe other end locked to the hook; the extension post of the annualhandle penetrating through the hook, the torque coil and the annual tubeof the holder in sequence, a locking member penetrating into theextension tube at the lower end of the holder to be secured in thelocking slot of the extension post, and the holder being implanted intothe single post.
